This match sees the joint leaders of Group A go head to head for the first time in a competitive match, but will it be the reigning Champions League champions or the Champions League first timers that claim all three points? Online sportsbooks have Inter as the favourite at odds of 1.70, with Spurs available at 5.00 and the draw can be backed at 3.75. Check out for more Football betting odds
Inter Milan have been impressive at home this season winning three and drawing one of their four home matches in Serie A and Champions League. They have conceded just one goal – against Udinese at the start of September – and scored ten times. Of those ten goals eight came as they recorded two 4-0 victories against Bari in the league and Werder Bremen in the Champions League. They have not been as impressive away from the San Siro, but at home they are a force to be reckoned with. Can they continue unbeaten at home against Spurs?
Spurs have had an up and down season so far, but they are level with Inter in the Champions League and they sit fifth in the Premier League, level on points with Manchester United. They have been in good form recently, winning their last three matches but will they be able to continue in that form in this match? That three match winning run saw them beat FC Twente 4-1 at White Hart Lane and saw their newest signing Rafael Van der Vaart, a man who has been pulling all the strings for Harry Redknapp’s side, sent off and he will miss this match against Inter. Will he be missed?
As he has been the most creative and attacking player in the Spurs team over recent weeks, I feel that Spurs will struggle in this match without him. They will most likely play a less attacking team than they would with Van der Vaart in the starting eleven, but Spurs will still be dangerous on the counter attack. Inter are missing Diego Milito up front, but Samuel Eto’o will start and will hope to find space to score against a makeshift Spurs defence, which has been hit by injuries. How will the game go? I see a strategic match with few goals and with the home side taking all three points.
My money is on the home win at 1.70 and there to be less than 2.5 goals at odds of 2.10.

SEC Predictions and Previews: The Auburn Tigers Will Win
SEC Predictions and Betting Odds @Sportsbook: Everyone knows that betting isn’t betting unless someone steps to the plate with a bold prediction. Here’s one for you: the Auburn Tigers will win the SEC. Let that one sink in for a minute.
Yes, those Auburn Tigers. The same Tigers who are in a division as the reigning, BCS National Champions – and the team that is likely to be the preseason No. 1 – Alabama Crimson Tide. They are also in the same division as the Arkansas Razorbacks, who are supposed sexy sleeper and the LSU Tigers, who are always hanging around near the front of the pack.
So why Auburn?
Last season, Auburn opened some eyes when they started the year 5-0. Sportsbook odds makers were quickly forced to adjust on their total as the Auburn offense that was stuck in the mud under Tommy Tuberville all of the sudden was lighting up the scoreboard.

Football Champions League final: Franck Ribery’s Champions League final ban.
The Frenchman was banned for three games for his red card on the first-leg of the Champions League semi-final clash with Lyon, as the sending off was classed as violent conduct.
Bayern Munich have accepted the Court of Arbitration’s decision to uphold Franck Ribery’s Champions League final ban.
Bayern felt that the decision was incorrect, and instead Ribery’s red card should have been classed as dangerous foul play instead, which would have resulted in a one game ban, which the winger has already served.
However, the Court of Arbitration have claimed that, due to legal reasons, they could not overturn UEFA’s decision, which Bayern have reluctantly accepted.
"FC Bayern Munich must and will accept and respect the judgement of the CAS," the Bundesliga club said in a press release.
"FC Bayern Munich took every legal route possible in the interest of the club, their supporters and of course Franck Ribery."
The move means that Ribery could well have played his final game for the German side, having intimated that he would be looking to move clubs in the summer, with both Chelsea and Real Madrid believed to be chasing his signature.
